It is Britain’s most cruel running race-268 miles non-stop along the Pennine Way. Jasmin Paris, who is still breastfeeding her daughter, beat 136 other competitors from 15 countries, 125 men included, to win the Montane Spine Race. She broke the men’s record by over 12 hours.
To train for the race, Paris had to get up at 4, when she would head out for runs in the hills around her home while her family were still in bed. She also went on plenty of long hikes with her baby.
She was on the course for 83 hours and 12 minutes, pausing to power nap and eat for only seven hours. She had to carry everything she needed and had to navigate using a map and compass, mostly alone and in the dark. But she was relentless. Almost 20 hours after she had finished, only two men had completed the race, with everyone else either still on the course or retired.
Top British ultra-runner and former Spine Race finisher Damian Hall says, “Her performance was extraordinary-one of the great British ultra-running performances.” Olympian Jo Pavey says Paris’s performance was “awesome and inspiring.”
Since finishing, Paris has caught lots of attention, with television appearances and Chelsea Clinton tweeting about her victory. “This has been harder than the race,” she says. “At least then I just had one job to do: keep putting one foot in front of the other.” All she craves now is a good night’s sleep.

5. What did Paris think harder than running?
A. Training for the face. B. Taking care of her young baby.
C. Getling good night5s sleep. D. Dealing with the public attention.
6. Whal does the underlined word “carve” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. look for B. long for C. answer for D. wait for
7. Which of the following can best describe Paris?

Technology is developing fast. A gadget as small as a smartphone now has more processing power than rockets to the moon once had. New tech brings many advantages, making our lives easier and opening up new opportunities. One piece of such kit that’s been really taking off recently is the drone.
This pilotless mini aircraft, originally developed for aerial photography and warfare, is now bringing us benefits closer to home. In the last few years, tech companies such as Amazon, Alphabet and Uber have promised us delivery drones — bringing goods to our doorsteps in a matter of minutes. Progress in developing them has, however, been slow.
Drones are helping to connect with and enhance the lives of people in remote locations. In the UK, the Royanl Mail wants a fleet of 500 drones to help deliver the mail to far-flung communities. Wincracers, the company developing the drones, say they can fly in fog and produce 30％ fewer emissions than comparable piloted aircraft. And in Coventry in the UK, construction has started on an air hub, which will act as a base for police and delivery drones. Urban-Air Port Limited is working with car-maker Hyundai on the mini-airport, known as sky port.
Drones could also play a part in improving the health of millions of people. In Zanzíbar, for example, they’re being used to spray wetlands against malaria. And writing for BBC Future website, Harriet Constable describes an incredible development project by the University of South Australia. The plan is for drones to eventually be able to survey populations for disease by reading the blood oxygen levels of humans from the air. They’ll also be able to scan for other vital signs, like coughing and a high temperature.
“It seems the sky is the limit for what drone technology can achieve. The only thing that sometimes keeps it grounded is regulation.” Writing for the BBC, Jessica Brown says, “If our skies are to become as crowded as our streets, airspace rules need updating to prevent accidents. There are also related problems, such as noise pollution.”
8. For what were drones first used?
A. Aerial photography and warfare B. Bringing goods to people in need
C. Checking for disease in a community D. Spraying farm chemicals onto plants
9. Where does the UK’s Royal Mail want to deliver mail to by drone?
A. The foggy areas B. An air hub
C. A skyporl D. Distant or remote places
10. What attitude does Jessica Brown have toward drones?
A. Doubtful B. Opposed
C. Supportive D. Pessimistic
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Advances in aviation B. Delivering by drones
C. High-tech and human life D. Solutions to air crisis
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B

【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““It seems the sky is the limit for what drone technology can achieve. The only thing that sometimes keeps it grounded is regulation.” Writing for the BBC, Jessica Brown says, “If our skies are to become as crowded as our streets, airspace rules need updating to prevent accidents. There are also related problems, such as noise pollution.”(“无人机技术的发展似乎没有止境。有时候，唯一能让它站稳脚跟的就是监管。”杰西卡·布朗为BBC撰稿说：“如果我们的天空变得像我们的街道一样拥挤，空域规则需要更新，以防止事故发生。还有一些相关的问题，比如噪音污染。”)”可推知，杰西卡·布朗对无人机持支持态度。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“In the last few years, tech companies such as Amazon, Alphabet and Uber have promised us delivery drones — bringing goods to our doorsteps in a matter of minutes. Progress in developing them has, however, been slow.(在过去几年里，亚马逊、Alphabet和优步等科技公司向我们承诺，会有送货无人机——几分钟内就能把货物送到我们家门口。然而，开发它们的进展一直很缓慢)”结合文章主要介绍了通过无人机送货的进展，无人机正在帮助连接偏远地区的人们并改善他们的生活。英国皇家邮政想用无人机把邮件送到遥远或偏僻的地方。无人机还可以在改善数百万人的健康方面发挥作用。可知，B选项“无人机送货”最符合文章标题。故选B。
D
A team of Japanese scientists has discovered genes that enable rice to survive high water, providing hope for better rice production in lowland areas that are affected by flooding.
The genes, called SNORKEL genes, help rice grow longer stems to deal with higher water levels. Deepwater rice generally produces low-yield (低产的) rice plants. But the researchers report they have succeeded in introducing the genes to rice varieties that are higher-yield.
According to the report, as water levels rise, accumulation of the plant hormone (激素) ethylene (乙烯) makes the SNORKEL genes start working, making stem growth more rapid. When the researchers introduced the genes into rice that does not normally survive in deep water, they were able to rescue the plants from drowning.
Motoyuki Ashikari, who headed the project, said his team is hoping to use the gene on long grain rice widely used in Southeast Asia to help stabilize production in flood areas where rice with the food-resistant gene is low in production — about one-third to one-quarter that of regular rice. “Scientifically the gene that we found is rare but clear proof of a biological ability to adapt to a difficult environment,” he said. “It’s a genetic strategy specifically to survive flooding.”
High water levels in rice field can be a serious problem. In some areas, rains can cause water levels to rise dangerously high during the growing season and flash flooding can fully cover plants for days or even weeks.
Rice is a main food for billions, and while productivity has increased dramatically since the 1960s, yields must be doubled to meet projected requirements by 2050. More than 30 percent of Asian and 40 percent of African rice land is either lowland field or deep water field.
Laurentius of Utrecht University said the study is significant because high-yield rice varieties cannot survive extremes of floods. “The introduction of these genes into high-yield varieties, using advanced breeding strategies, promises to improve the quality and quantity of rice.” he said.
12. What can readers know about SNORKEL genes?
A. They make rice become ripe within a shorter time.
B. They make rice grow tall enough to survive in deep water.
C. They help rice grow stronger whatever the areas and the climate.
D. They prevent rice from being attacked by various insects.
13. What will happen to the rice with the special gene, according to the text?
A. It will be helpful for Northeast Asia.
B. It will be softer than regular rice.
C. It will be widely planted all over the world.
D. It will increase the production of rice.
14. What does the underlined word “projected” in Paragraph 6th probably mean?
A. Loose. B. Remarkable.
C. Planned. D. Complicated.
15. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To introduce a scientific research finding.
B. To analyze a scientific experiment result,
C. To discuss a plant developing effort.
D. To guide the development of agriculture.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍的是一组日本科学家的科学研究发现，他们发现了能使水稻在高水位下生存的基因，为受洪水影响的低地地区有更好的水稻产量提供了希望。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A team of Japanese scientists has discovered genes that enable rice to survive high water, providing hope for better rice production in lowland areas that are affected by flooding. (一组日本科学家发现了使水稻能够在高水位生存的基因，为受洪水影响的低地地区有更好的水稻产量提供了希望)”以及第二段“The genes, called SNORKEL genes, help rice grow longer stems to deal with higher water levels. (这些基因被称为SNORKEL基因，帮助水稻长出更长的茎，以应对更高的水位)”可知，SNORKEL基因能帮助水稻的茎长得更高，即使长在深水区域，也能存活下来。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“But the researchers report they have succeeded in introducing the genes to rice varieties that are higher-yield. (但研究人员报告说，他们已经成功地将这些基因引入了产量更高的水稻品种)”以及第三段“When the researchers introduced the genes into rice that does not normally survive in deep water, they were able to rescue the plants from drowning. (当研究人员将这种基因引入通常不能在深水中生存的水稻中时，他们能够将这些溺水的植物拯救出来)”可知，有这种基因的水稻能在深水区生存下来，水稻存活率高了，水稻产量也会相应提高。故选D项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第七段“Rice is a main food for billions, and while productivity has increased dramatically since the 1960s, yields must be doubled to meet projected requirements by 2050.(大米是数十亿人的主要食物，自20世纪60年代以来，大米产量大幅提高，但到2050年，产量必须翻一番才能满足projected的需求)”中的by 2050可知，此处指“预计需求”。A. loose零散的；B. remarkable引人注目的；C. planned期待的；D. complicated复杂的。由此可知，propected与planned意思相近。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其第一段“A team of Japanese scientists has discovered genes that enable rice to survive high water, providing hope for better rice production in lowland areas that are affected by flooding. (一组日本科学家发现了使水稻在高水位下生存的基因，这为受洪水影响的低地地区提高水稻产量带来了希望)”可知，这篇文章的目的是介绍一项科学研究发现。故选A项。

How to maintain your privacy online?
Some of us like to keep some things private-maybe we don’t want people to know about our relationship status, our age or where we live — because these details are personal.____16____
On our social medial accounts, we often display things like our opinions, connections and holiday photos.____17____? Maybe we don’t want a random stranger to know our favorite type of coffee. And cookies —there was a time they were just something nice to eat. Now they seem to be popping up on websites. So how can you stay more private?
____18____First, on your social media accounts, check your privacy settings. Many social media platforms allow everything to be visible by default, and the responsibility is on you to set your boundaries. And limiting the amount you share isn’t only confined to social media. There are many sites out there that help you to share documents — so a good tip may be to not put anything too private, like passwords, on there. One errant click may send it to the wrong person.

So if you want to maintain your privacy online, maybe only share things you’d be happy with a stranger seeing — and if you don’t feel comfortable with cookies, you might decide to invest in some tech to block them____20____just don’t accept them and visit another site — and why not have a yummy cookie to eat instead?
A. If that’s not enough
B. There are some steps you can take
C. It is very important to solve the problems
D. The issue is, how do we stop everybody seeing everything

And limiting the amount you share isn’t only confined to social media. There are many sites out there that help you to share documents — so a good tip may be to not put anything too private, like passwords, on there. One errant click may send it to the wrong person.(首先，在你的社交媒体账户上，检查你的隐私设置。许多社交媒体平台默认允许所有内容都是可见的，你有责任设定你的界限。限制分享的数量并不仅限于社交媒体。有很多网站可以帮助你分享文件，所以一个好的建议是不要在上面放任何太私人的东西，比如密码。一个错误的点击可能会把它发送给错误的人)”可知，后文提到了一些保护隐私的步骤。本句总起下文，提出有可以采取的步骤。故选B项“你可以采取一些步骤”符合语境，故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Finally, cookies are designed to improve your browsing experience by tracking and saving information about your visits to a site, helping to personalize your sessions. Deleting your browsing history may help(最后，cookie旨在通过跟踪和保存您访问网站的信息来改善您的浏览体验，帮助个性化您的会话。删除你的浏览记录可能会有所帮助)”可知，上文提到了cookie的作用，且前半句提到了删除浏览记录，可知本句是在说明不想让cookie跟踪和保存网址信息的情况。故E选项“但如果你觉得不舒服，有些应用程序可以阻止它们”符合语境，故选E。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mother’s gift
I grew up in a small town where the primary school was a ten-minute walk from my house．When the noon bell rang，I would race breathlessly home．My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs，smiling down at me．
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always．I had been picked to be the princess in the school play，and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me．But no matter how easily I acted at home，as soon as I stepped onstage，every word disappeared from my head．Finally，my teacher took me aside．She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play，and asked me to change roles．Her word，kindly expressed，still hurt，especially when I saw my part go to another girl．
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day．But she sensed my pain．Instead of suggesting we practise my lines，she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard．
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine was turning green．Under the huge trees，we could see yellow dandelions（蒲公英）in the grass in bunches，as if a painter had touched our landscape with a bit of gold．I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion．"I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds，" she said，pulling it up by its roots．"From now on，we'll have only roses in this garden．"
“But I like dandelions，” I protested．“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions．”
My mother looked at me seriously．“Yes，every flower gives pleasure in its own way，doesn't it？" she asked thoughtfully．I nodded，pleased that I had won her over．“And that is true of people too，" she added．“Not everyone can be a princess，but there is no shame in that．" Relieved that she had guessed my pain，I started to cry as I told her what had happened．She listened and smiled reassuringly．
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右：
2．请按如下格式作答。
“But you will be a beautiful narrator，” she said，___________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the play，I took home the flower. ____________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】【参考范文】
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, encouraging and comforting me as always as she did. My beloved mom, wearing a shining smile on her soft face, added. “The narrator’s part is important, too.” Thanks to her encouragement, which calmed me down gradually, I began to accept that the narrator part was of vital significance. Time went so fast that it reached to the performance day. At first I was still nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion in my pocket. I knew my mom passed the flower to me, which meant to be in company with me.
After the play, I took home the flower. Mom carefully gazed at the dandelion, gently pressed it into the dictionary and grinned happily as she did. “We were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorry-looking weed.” Though decades have passed, I constantly recall our precious lunchtimes being together, grateful, because smiles on Mother’s face and her kind act foster a man like me now! And all those inspiring words like “Cease to struggle and you cease to live.” have been echoing in my mind as fresh as a daisy.
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者原本被选定为出演话剧中公主的角色，由于表现不佳，被老师调整角色，不得不担任话剧讲解员，在心情郁闷之时，母亲一如既往地用自己的智慧，以花园里玫瑰和蒲公英的存在为载体，宽慰作者的心，帮助作者重拾信心，以及让作者在后来的人生道路上也充满了信心。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“但你会成为一个美丽的讲解员”可知，第一段可描写母亲如何用花园里的玫瑰和蒲公英打比方，缓解我的情绪，并给我勇气，让我重拾信心去参加比赛。
②由第二段首句内容“演出结束后，我把花带回家。”可知，这里的花指的是前文提到的蒲公英，是作者去表演时母亲给他的花。本段还可以继续描写母亲对我人生态度的影响。
2.续写线索：我参加学校话剧表演——要求担任公主的角色——表现不佳——被老师调整为讲解员——心情压抑——母亲用玫瑰和蒲公英的故事开导我——重拾信心登上舞台——演出成功——母亲鼓励的话语依旧回荡。
3.词汇激活

①.发现：find/ discover/ detect
②.回忆：recall/ look back on/ think back to
③.培养：foster/ cultivate/ rear/ raise
情绪类
①.快乐的：happy / cheerful/ joyous
②.紧张的：nervous / anxious/ worried
【点睛】[高分句型1]. Thanks to her encouragement, which calmed me down gradually, I began to accept that the narrator part was of vital significance.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句）
[高分句型2]. At first I was still nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion in my pocket.（运用了it was……that强调句型，本句强调时间状语）
